Product Description

After decades of constant war and fighting, the world has finally come to a lasting peace. But with war being an integral part of their lives for so long, the citizens of the world are desperate for a solution to solve this newfound peaceful life of calm and tranquility. To ease this tension and to appease its citizens, the government has started pursuing a new round of wars. These new campaigns are not a power struggle between hostile countries, but rather sponsored events between private corporations with military-trained personnel contracted by each side to do their biding for them. It is the battles fought by these corporations such as Rostock and Lautern and the constant media reports on them that satisfy and replace the basic human instinct to fight using the war as a show. The latest rookie pilot to join the Sky Crawlers, codenamed “Lynx,” is working his way up the ranks and becomes involved in a secret new military project with the goal of making pilots immortal. Join Lynx on his journey to conquer the skies while unraveling the mystery behind the military’s covert new project. The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces is the latest flight simulation game from Project Aces, the development team behind the Ace Combat series. Holding the Nunchuk in the right hand as the flight control stick and the Wii Remote in the left hand as the throttle, the unique controls of the Wii are fully utilized to simulate the controls of sitting in an actual cockpit. The somber story of a world that needs war to survive is told with a combination of animated cut-scenes and voiced in-game sequences during battle.

The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces is the latest flight simulation game from Project Aces, the development team behind the Ace Combat series. Featuring an engrossing story, action-based flight simulation, aerial combat, and an innovative use of the Nintendo Nunchuk controller which mimics the use of a real-life flight stick, it is a worthy addition to the game libraries of both new and more experienced fans of aerial combat games on the Wii.

Gameplay and Controller Options A single player air combat simulation game, in The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces players utilize the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller configuration to take control of the skies in dogfights, bombing runs and more. Different from most games using this configuration, in this case the Nunchuk is held in the right hand and used as the flight control stick, while the Wii Remote in the left serves as the throttle, activated by tilting it up and down to go faster or slower. In preparation for combat pilots are provided with short tactical briefings, and success allows for upgrades in aircraft and weapons. The game supports Classic and GameCube controllers.

I loved it! I am sixty-six years old and not a gamer so it was and is a lot of fun to me. I got it to help maintain my hand and eye coordination. Eventually you do shut off the music and the voice dialog, but the game's challenges do not need those to be enjoyed. The only suggestion that I would want to make is that you learn right off to use the TMC (Technical Maneuver Command). In a dogfight you get a long little box at the botton of the screen with a line in it that is filling up and when it says "1" or "2" you punch the "A" button and really cool things happen! The TMC part of that game is just priceless and way to much fun. So I give The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces five stars for fun.

Easy to understand and play. Multiple missions that become increasingly more challenging. If you fail a mission (by not completing in time or crashing) you can easily restart and even pick a different plane that might work better.

I'm impressed with the graphics and the multi-layered aspect of the game. You are placed in a story line with full briefings on your missions ahead of time. When you complete missions there is sometimes a mini-movie that advances the story line.

There are a number of features to the flying, including being able to execute a move to get behind an opponent.

Some missions are non-combat but it is basically a combat game. You spar with other airplanes and some missions have you taking out ground or naval targets. Once you've completed a mission you can "free play it" any time you want. As you move through missions you unlock more planes and weapons.

I was looking for a Wii game to add to my relatively small library. I saw this off on this website and I decided to buy it based off of my own intuition. Being a fan of Star Wars Rogue Squadron video game series helped pique my interests.

The gameplay is pretty good, and the story is alright. The controls are better and more enjoyable with a Classic Controller, in my opinion. There are some minuscule flaws, like the explosions. When I began playing, I expected something a little more violent and reactive. Instead, they kind of look like explosions off from a stock iMovie effect. But its a Wii, so I wouldn't expect it to be a powerhouse of sorts. All in all, its fun to play.

This is a fun game that actually has replay value! I just beat it and I find myself wanting to play it again. Usually after I beat a game I put it to the side. The graphics are good and the moves it has for your plane are pretty amazing and very acrobatic. I wish the role of the wand and the nun-chuck were switched. I would say that the game has almost complete ease of controlling your plane, It only lacks very little in a few instances. It is cheesy because it based on anime characters and the story is kinda weird. If it had not been made like a cheap anime cartoon it would be better. There are only two or three really hard levels in the game other then that their is a total of about 18 levels of great game play! Remember I gave it four stars even though I listed a couple of negatives. Of course any game is better when its multi player!

I bought this game so I could dogfight, bomb and strafe. The game provides plenty of that, and in some nice looking locations as well.

The controls on this take a little getting used to, but, once you get the hang of it, it's very easy to fly. You can even do fancy maneuvers with the touch of a button. The story line is shallow, and basically irrelevant to the game play, but that's not important to me.

You can play the whole game at easy, normal and hard levels, and choose missions individually, if you like.

This is a fun game to pick up when you feel like flying around and shooting for a while, but it's not hard to put down when it's time to go back to the real world.

My first taste of the Ace Combat series, I considered a prequel since it looks like it's based in the WWII time period and obviously the famous anime movie from the creators of Ghost in the Shell. I did like it a lot, it's the perfect mix of story and action most modern games seem to be missing nowadays.

This was the game which I had tested few years back.. So it was really nic to replay it.. About the game, its a really well made, good all-around game. Its got an interesting story, unique gameplay and catchy background score.If one finds it a bit difficult to play with remote and nunchuk, you can easily play it using classic controller.
